I like a lot of fruits. Like watermelon, oranges, bananas, pears, star fruit, kiwi fruit, apples and so on. But sometimes someone told me apple is the best fruit for health, and there is the saying "an apple a day makes the doctor away". And sometimes people said it is the kiwi fruit most healthy. I just wonder which is the best for health.

Any fruit is good if it was not sprayed with chemicals or genetically manipulated. Bananas are the most nutritious, but any fruit in it's season helps you in that season. For instance, citrus fruit is a source of natural vitamin c in winter. You also get vitamin c from guavas in that time, just to name a few. The wider the choice the more vital elements you acquire. Each has it's own qualities you can benefit from. There are fruits though that don't react too good to your blood type. Pears can give me heavy stomach cramps. You can do a research on your blood group diet. Enjoy your fruit!

The best for health is probably the apple. Because I heard that apple can curb your hunger and makes you full. The tendency with this is that you tend to eat less because you feel full and the apple can help you regulate your blood sugar levels, as well. The apple also aids in natural bowel elimination which decreases the likelihood of constipation since it is loaded with fiber. It is also rich in Vitamin A which could help out during a bad cold.

I am not sure for health but I love bananas, but for lunch I am taking the apple, one does not need to peel and two of them make a great lunch.

Hi colydf, I think every fruits have their own good. And it is different if your look at the different angle. The is a fruits good for your skin or your brain or your bone or anything else. Different fruit have different advantages. And different culture may suggest different kind of food for very same problems. Solution ... eat every food you can find and it is good for you. Enjoying your fruits and have a nice day.

I don't think you can name one fruit to be the most beneficial. The apple has some properties not shared with other fruits, one of them being that the pectin attracts toxins and carries it out of the body, but you really need a variety of fruits for optimum nutrition. As one person pointed out, eat fruits in season because each season has its own nutritional needs and the fruits for that season will supply them.
